Pinchpoint 1 Sign Posts AR and AS
Most Northerly pinchpoint - Curb nearside heading south continuously hit. Bank encroached both before and after pinch point, much lining obscured and cats eyes hidden in the road surface.

South of Pinchpoint 1Road breaking where tarmac not sealed properly (This is typical of the whole road.)
Bank encroaching the carriageway

South of Pinchpoint 1
Sunken manhole - creates noise and vibration in the houses from heavy lorries.

Four Gas Access Points All will be sunken after surface dressing. Bank enroaching the carriage way.

Sunken and Cracked Drain on West Side of the road

Pinchpoint 2 Sign Posts AN and AP
Worn road in between the islands. Typical of the increased wear due to double the heavy traffic within the pinch points.

Pinchpoint 2 Sign Posts AN and AP
Typical loss of reflectors under the road surface This problem is throughout the system. No more illustrations will be given as long as this commonality is recognised.

Sunken Gas Access point

South of Pinchpoint 2
Typical breaking up of the surface caused by edges of repairs not being sealed. Again typical of the whole system.

Another sunken gas point.

South of Pinchpoint 2 At the entrance to Middlemead. Badly sunken and breaking trench which causes a lot of noise and vibration in the nearby houses.

Bad wear of surface within the pinch point

White line was obviously tarmacced over at some point and beyond that a trench breaking out again

Multiple problems with sunken Gas Access point and broken road surface

Around Pinchpoint 5
Road here floods due to material being washed out of the secondary Downside Entrance (not to be confused with the main one.) This material then blocks the drains making any flooding worse

At Pinchpoint 6 Sign Posts AE and AF
Badly worn road surface despite this having been replaced not so long ago. Probably caused by twice as much traffic in the pinch point (two directions) and heavy lorries pulling away on the hill

Around Pinchpoint 7
Worn Road Surface both before and after the Pinchpoint

At Pinchpoint 7 Sign Post Z
Where pinchpoint was altered, the tarmac is wearing badly. It should be noticed that the building out of the pinch point shoulder on the near side as agreed at a meeting was not carried out. Persons on the pavement still feel threatened by lorries heading for them as there is no protection. Because this pinch point is now wider these lorries also travel at a higher speed making it worse

Around Pinchpoint 7
The road both to the north and to the south is much narrower than it used to be, with the banks
encroaching in general. This can be seen from the road markings. It has been made worse
recently by the incorrect positioning of a replacement electricity pole which should have been
repositioned about eight feet back and higher up the bank. The bank is now collapsing and is
liable to do so more with stormy weather. The whole bank needs taking back to where it used to
be between pinch point 7 and the lay-by between pinch points 8 and 9

Badly worn road surface

Bus Stop Layby
This is is a bad state of repair. The bus stop is in the bank. There is nowhere for people to queue
for the bus except for in the road
